Can't install a bag for my Craftsman 16 gallon shop-vac

Shop-vac model 90L550A motor wont run

Yes replacing the link would work, but that would not fix the cause. You have either pulled the wiring to the point of pulling apart the connection or there is a short. Which would be in the way of a grounding effect causing the link to heat and melt ...

I have a craftsman wet/dry vac - 16 gal 5.0 hp peak motor. Serial 98065V 8058, model113. 177790. When I try to use the vacuum function, the blower works too. Debris is blowing out of the shop vac instead of staying in.

Shop vac my craftsman vac is blowing dust out the difuser filter. Have cleaned the filters out. Any other suggestions?

No suction i have a hoover supreme wind tunnel vac and its relatively new and the suction, well......sucks. It wont pick anything up! I am extremely frustrated! I picked up a ball of fuzz off the carpet and held it under the vacuum and it still wouldn't **** it up. I then shoved the fuzz up INTO the vacuum. It fell right back out. I may as well not even vacuum. Please help!

What color is the air flow indicator supposed to be? Mine is yellow but I have no suction. I have read that some people have red, others yellow. I have cleared out all hoses and cleaned the filters with a shop vac, still cannot get it to pick up. Just keeps blowing the dirt out the back at me :(

Hi there, the unit may be experiencing something other than a blockage. Perhaps the dirt canister is not put back into place properly and the unit is sucking through there instead of through the hose.Check to see if the lid and the canist ...

I have a Craftsman brand shop vac [model # 113.77420]. It is still picking items when I sweep with it, but it has developed a very high pitched squealing sound whenever I turn it on. The sound makes it almost impossible to use. Any thoughts?
Thanks,

My Craftsman wet/dry vac is not picking anything up. It seems have some suction...not as much as it used to. I just replaced the filter and that did not help. Any suggestions?

The kenmore premalite upright seems to always break the ring around the middle of the suction tube-rendering the thing useless--sears wont sell the ring, only whole tube-tax and shipping is about 50.00---chat rooms everywhere complain about this prob.--what can I do to fix this with stuff I would find in my shop???

Hover Elite Rewind
I've only had this vacuum a few months and I really liked it until now. There is almost no suction from anywhere in the vacuum, and I've cleaned all the filters and rollers with my shop vac and made sure that everything was assembled correctly. It used to be really quiet now it is quite loud and it keeps over heating, and shutting off. At this point I have no idea what could cause this problem, the machine is nearly brand new and I can't afford a new one at this point.

You have to clean out the hose under the bottom of the vacuum cleaner. To do this you have to remove the bottom plate the covers the brush it has about 6 screws. Also remove the brush and belt in order to thourhly clean it. I had the same issue you h ...
